Hi,

If you are using autotools to configure Trinity, know that they are
buggy, and (if i'm correct *coughprobablynotcough*) no longer
supported for tqtinterface, arts, kdelibs, and kdebase.
You should start using cmake to compile Trinity and its features. :)

If you have been unofficially maintaining KDE3, where can I find your
spec files? I may wish to merge them with the Fedora and SuSE RPM spec
files to build from one location - build.opensuse.org.
